How to Read Using Braille?

Braille is a system by which blind people are able to read. The system is composed of the basic alphabet plus numerous contractions and short cuts. There are 3 grades of braille.

Grade 1 has no contractions. Grade 2 has about 200 contractions. Grade 3 has about 700 contractions.

Most people rea grade 2. A braille cell is composed of 6 dots. Imagine the cell as a verticle rectangle.

Dots 1,2,3 are on the left hand side of the cell. Dots 4,5 and 6 are on the right side. The letters of the alphabet are a combination of dots within this cell.

For example, the letter A is dot 1. The letter C is dots 1 and 4. I mentioned contractions before.

Contractions are used because they take up less space and allow for faster reading. An example of a contraction is dots 5,6 and the letter N. This combination stands for the letters TION.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
